Malta rejects Romanian extradition request for Prince Paul Philippe due to potential rights breach.

Malta has rejected a Romanian request to extradite Prince Paul Philippe, who was convicted in Romania and sentenced to nearly 40 months for corruption-related offenses. The Maltese court ruled that there was a "real risk" of the prince's fundamental rights being breached if extradited. This decision follows a similar ruling by a French court in November, which refused to extradite him on grounds that he faced political persecution.
